Look, I already told you guys to watch BBCA’s The Last Kingdom; it’s a great historical drama, with excellent actors and a thoughtful approach to its characters and story. But since I’m not certain that angle worked (I haven’t seen any of you raving beside me), I’ll take the next logical step: appealing to your baser instincts.

I do so hope you’re fully awake this Friday, and possibly off or clocking out early, because you’re going to need to get to your bunk rather quickly. You see, once you’ve met Uhtred — son of Uhtred — of Bebbanburg (Alexander Dreymon), life will never be the same.
